Reducing Space Between Header and Text
Earlier today, I wrote the following:
I've completed writing a business letter that looks awkward because there is too much space between the header and the text. The first line of text has only the date on it. I tried moving it up by placing the cursor to the left of the J in July. I can't move it up any more on the page. Is my problem lie in the vertical length of my header? I tried setting my margins for .25 inch on each side of the page, but to no avail. What steps must I take to move the body of text higher on the page to be closer to the header? Thanks in advance. Suzanne (MS Tech Support) wrote the following response: "Four things to check on: 1. Top margin: This has nothing to do with where the header is, which is determined by the header margin. 2. Spacing After applied to the header paragraph (Format | Paragraph). 3. Spacing Before applied to the date paragraph. 4. Center justification instead of Top (Layout tab of Page Setup)" Unfortunately, none of these suggestions corrected the problem. I wonder now if the vertical length of the header is too great and there's too many unused lines in the header. If this is the case, how do I correct this? If not, what other solutions can I try? Thanks. |
